One day I visited an art museum while waiting for my husband to finish a business meeting．I was expecting a quiet 36 of the splendid artwork．

A young 37 viewing the paintings ahead of me 38 nonstop between themselves．I watched them a moment and decided the lady was doing all the talking．I admired the man's 39 for putting up with her 40 stream of words． 41 by their noise, I moved on．

I met them several times as I moved 42 the various rooms of art．Each time I heard her continuous flow of words, I moved away 43 ．

I was standing at the counter of the museum gift shop making a 44 when the couple approached the 45 ．Before they left, the man 46 into his pocket and pulled out a white object．He 47 it into a long stick and then tapped his way into the 48 to get his wife's jacket．

"He's a 49 man．" the clerk at the counter said．"Most of us would give up if we were blinded at such a young age．During his recovery, he made a promise his life wouldn't change．

So, as before, he and his wife come in 50 there is a new art show．"

"But what does he get out of the art?" I asked．"He can't see．"

"Can't see! You're 51 ．He sees a lot．More than you and I do," the clerk said．"His wife 52 each painting so he can see it in his head．"

I learned something about patience, 53 and love that day．I saw the patience of a young wife describing paintings to a person without __54_ and the courage of a husband who would not 55 blindness to change his life．And I saw the love shared by two people as I watched this couple walk away, hand in hand．

Every human being has a unique^① arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable. Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case.

The ridge structure on a person’s fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries. Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original^② pattern. It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed. Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.

Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer’s ink. They can by recorded easily. With special methods, identification^③ can be achieved successfully within a short time. Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case. A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain. His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.

When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye. Special techniques are used to “develop” them. Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.

unique adj. 唯一的，独特的

original adj. 最初的，原始的

identification n. 辩认，鉴定

By the time a student starts to apply (申请) for a US university, much of his or her record, including grades and after-school activities, has been set in stone. For this reason, the student must in his or her first year of high school start getting ready for college. He or she also has to decide on the non-academic (非学业的) tasks, which are important to improve the student’s chances of getting in.

1. After-school activities

When it comes to high school activities, quality is better than quantity (数量). Admissions (录取) officers do not want to see a student who has joined dozens of organizations (组织) for a short period of time.

Many students try to do this towards the end of their high school. But schools want to see a student who has been with one organization for all or most of high school. A student who can do this shows maturity (成熟). It is the quality that admissions officers look for as it is one of the markers of future success.

2. Leadership

Schools want to see a student who has taken on a leadership role in an organization. A student can show leadership by taking on any role that needs extra commitment (奉献) and responsibility.

If you do not have a great title (头衔) such as president, be sure to explain any leadership roles you have taken. This kind of involvement (参与) in school activities shows you are the responsible person that admissions officers look for.

3. Consistency (一致性)

Admissions officers like an application (申请) to be consistent. For example if there is a high school activity you particularly (特别地) love, it would help if that activity matches your future academic and career interest.

Of course not everything needs to be consistent. Otherwise (否则) the student would be narrow and this is not what schools are looking for. However, you cannot have different parts of your application saying conflicting (矛盾的) things.

1.Who was the article written for?

A. US college students hoping to study in China.

B. Chinese college students hoping to study in the US.

C. Third year high school students hoping to study in the US.

D. Teenagers hoping to study in the US.

2.The underlined phrase "set in stone" in Paragraph 1 probably means ______.

A. made clear B. something unchangeable

C. become obvious D. at the right level(水平)

3.The author’s suggestion is to ______.

A. try as many different organizations as possible

B. start planning for college at the beginning of high school

C. make everything in an application consistent

D. put non-academic tasks before academic tasks

4.According to the article, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. Students should choose after-school activities they have great interest in.

B. It’s already too late for first year students to apply for a US university.

C. It is necessary for a student to be a president if he/she is to apply for a US university.

D. Students should concentrate on just one activity in high school.
